Transcript	Sir, I am surprised that my brother gave you my chest [safe-box] without my knowledge. That's why I warned you to keep it at your house until I or my wife could come and get it ourselves and don't give it to anyone else, for you will be answerable to me about what might be missing, and give it no one, no matter who it is unless he has a note in my handwriting. Your servant Phillip Muller [signature] Translated from the original French by David Wilkin, 22 March 2005
